As trained advocates, CASA volunteers are appointed by Judges to be a voice for abused and neglected children in court. The result
is they are placed into safe, loving homes where they can thrive.

CASA volunteers are ordinary people who are committed to doing what is best for a child. As a CASA volunteer, you will be able to
work with confidence. All our volunteers are thoroughly trained in courtroom procedure, social services, the Juvenile Justice system,
and the special needs of abused and neglected children. We welcome volunteers from all cultures, professions, and ethnic and
educational backgrounds. We have a particular need for men and people of color.
